Want to use Kie-Workbench as my user interface. But HOW?

[catherinesjy]

Dear all,

I have a jBPM project called 'MyProject' in Eclipse with jBPM6.1 plugin.

Now, I want to use the Kie-Workbench as the UI of 'MyProject'. That is, I want the users of 'MyProject' can create, modify and run their own BPMN diagram using Kie-Workbench, while the core of 'MyProject' including the WorkItemHandler.java, WorkDefinitions.wid and other related java files are now in the Eclipse.

I know that a project created on Kie-Workbench can be pull and push between the Kie-Wb and the Eclipse using ssh.

However, I have no idea about how can a project generated on Eclipse be run on Kie-Wb.

I found that the structure of Kie-Wb projects and the structure of Eclipse-jBPM projects are quite different. So how can I do convert or remote?

Do you have any idea or suggestion?

Thank you so so much!

Regards,

Catherine

Hi Catherine,

Sorry for the delay in answering, I will strongly suggest you to use maven for creating projects that can be easily imported into the KIE Workbench. Take a look at the jbpm-playground and try to follow the same structure for your projects, then you can upload those projects to github and clone them inside the KIE-Workbench. As you mention you can also push the projects to the KIE Workbench internal repositories, but I will definitely recommend you to have your projects in github just to make sure that you have a safe backup there.

Does it make sense?

Hi Mauricio,

Thank you very much for your suggestion! I will have a try to change the structure of my project to maven.

Appreciate it,

Catherine
